Two Russia-aligned cyber attack campaigns have continued to exploit a security flaw in WinRAR to target Ukrainian organisations, almost a year after patches for the vulnerability were released. The activity has been attributed by Trend Micro to Earth Dahu (aka Gamaredon) and SHADOW-EARTH-066 (aka UAC-0226). It involves the exploitation of CVE-2025-8088, a path traversal flaw that allows an

University of Toronto researchers have built and tested a proof-of-concept AI-driven computer worm that uses a locally hosted open-weight large language model to reason its way through a network, generate tailored attack strategies for each target it encounters, and replicate itself, all without human intervention and without touching a commercial AI service. The preprint, posted to arXiv on

Google has released security updates to address 74 vulnerabilities, including one that has come under active exploitation in the wild. The high-severity vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026-11645 (CVSS score: 8.8), has been described as an out-of-bounds memory access in V8, Chrome's JavaScript and WebAssembly engine. "Out-of-bounds read and write in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 149.0.7827.103

Organizations have more visibility than ever. Growing tech stacks provide greater coverage, and network security teams are increasingly adopting AI and automation to help with routine tasks and reduce manual effort. But the same challenges persist. Outages still last hours, causing significant financial losses, operational disruption, and reputational impact. Threat response and mean time to

A malicious website can work out which sites you visit and which apps you open, using nothing but JavaScript and the timing of your SSD. The attack, called FROST, needs no native code, no extension, and no permission prompt. You open the page, leave the tab sitting there, and it watches the drive for contention in the background. Researchers at Graz University of Technology built it and
